[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJEvans:
Thank you for the response. I hadn't observed battery drain, simply becuase I wasn't watching full movies, just playing for a few seconds to see if the video was watchable.

As Raj had pointed out, my testing was less than ideally scientific. I'm sure that the video files I was using were not formatted for optimum HD playback on my Gtablet using Froyo Roms. I do apologize for my generalizations that were made.

can you explain to me the "baseline profile?" I do have the video to android converter, and will be using the Gtablet profile to convert video files. I select the file, choose the Gtablet profile (Mpeg4 1024X600, 2.5 Mbps; AAC 192 Kbps, 48kHz) The only other option I can change is "Quality" my choices are high, standard, or economy. which should I choose, and would one run smoother than another. I would assume that high quality will run choppier, or will it just make the conversion take longer?

I'm trying to figure this all out. What I ended up finding out last night was that the user that was celebrating hardware acceleration working on Illuminate was using a video player that had a default set ot automatically detect which decoding to use when watching a movie. So, while he was downloading and watching 1080p video files, his player was defaulting to software decoding, due to the lack of hardware acceleration. when I called him out on it, he left the conversation saying that he will not longer be testing it...admitted defeat, in my opinion

There's nothing I would love more than to figure out what 1080p video files and formats I can play through my dock to make family mvie night more enjoyable.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roberto188:
Without going into too much detail the profile of a h264 file denotes different levels and techniques of compression and as a result different amounts of CPU power required to decode each profile. The basic profile has the worst compression (however still outstanding) and as a result requires the least power to decode and the tegra2 decodes it well. The program you are using is too basic to select profiles and my guess is it is simply picking one for you. Handbreak is a free video encoder that allows you to select different h264 profiles. If you search these forums many people have tutorials on how to use handbreak to encode 720p and 1080p files for use with the grab. Goodluck!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aabbondanza:
My 2 cents!!

You indeed are correct about the dock & HDMI output and that, to me, would be the only reason to want to encode & watch HD 720p or 1080P encoded movies on a gTab. Otherwise, you are just wasting your time...1024x600 is 1024x600 no matter if you are playing a HD encoded video or a native res encoded video(1024x600) especially on a 10" screen. The difference is indeed in the hardware DECODING as a hardware decoded video look better and plays with no stuttering that you will you almost always see in a software decoded movie (even though sometimes ever so slightly-thats why you will see flucutations in the fps rate when using Rockplayer).
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poymeister:
Thanks roberto - I took a 1280x720 (720p) clip that previously did not play well on RockPlayer with HW decoding, and I transcoded it to 1024x560 with the "normal" profile on Handbrake, and it played very well. It looked great! The original clip size was ~80MB and the 1024x560 clip was ~20MB.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roberto188:
Yes, agreed. 720p and 1080p resolutions are wasted on the Gtab screen, only benefit is video output to a monitor.
[HTC Wildfire S] hayatama:
My wfs suddenly stopped syncing about a week ago. Today, tried HTC sync, and it started syncing again.

Is this ordinary?
[HTC Wildfire S] AlsoW:
Not sure if you found the answer- but I found if my free RAM drops to below 18mb then it stops syncing with no explanation.

The only way to do it is to clear caches for some space or uninstall something.
[HTC Wildfire S] Royal King:
Keep your internal memory above 20mb. Only then it'll work. Weird but true.
[HTC Wildfire S] hayatama:
Thnx, both. It surely seems 18mb of mem might be the criteria for syncing. Rather troublesome for me, but can't help...

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ceelos09:
I sent the Viper Team a DM on Twitter 2 weeks back...so far no response. From what I know, Tphilips (head of Team Viper) and his wife were expecting a child. Development disappeared around the release of EB13-EC05, so I suspect he's had all this time off from Development to spent time with his wife n kid. Would be nice to see em again soon tho, but great things dnt last forever D:
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] justen7723:
That sucks, I always liked the viper teams work, trinity 3.0.3 was what made me want to learn how to root, install roms, etc. I saw a you tube video for it and it was then I had to learn becasuse I was bound and determined to have it lol.

Its funny how many people wanted to root their phone from that Trinity 3.0.3 video by randyshear. I talked to tphillips on Google+ recently and he does have a child now...and a Nexus S but did say that he was going to put together another ROM for the Epic. There was no ETA of course

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] S0ckM0nk3y:
Just to clear up a couple of things.

1. Yes its true I do not have an Epic any more I have a Nexus S 4G and a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

2. I had a beautiful baby girl so I took some time off from here

3. There will be another Rom released whether it's with the "Viper" name is TBD but rest assure that it will be made by same people that made.VIPERrom in the past give or take a few.

4. Don't ask an ETA

5. Yes it will be my last ROM for the "Epic"

6. Enjoy life

Thanks

Check voice recording app. That says microphone errors.

Maybe it is network error. Try to check with few different sim cards..

Then you have the headset. Check everything with headset too. That again tells phone microphone errors.
[Wildfire General] steve_032:
I had this exact problem yesterday! No one could hear what I was saying properly on calls. I rebooted and had a look in call settings etc. but had no joy.

I then looked at the phone its self. The microphone hole on the bottom of the case appeared to be blocked. I took the battery cover off and poked a pin through the hole to clear out some grime which had collected in there and was clogging it up. Solved all my problems.

Probably not the same issue you have but it might be worth a look!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Haraldr Blaatand:
The theme/requirement for this thread is that you list AT LEAST 2 APPs, and explain how you have configured them to work

together

.

For example, this is my favorite combination:

FolderOrganizer (paid version) "FO" [This is the key app here.]

LauncherPro (I do have the Plus version, but I don't think matters. "LP"

CM7 nightly (currently from 7/14/11)

Awesomeness:

My LP (single) dock includes 3 FO menus. I rarely pull up the app drawer, and I have NO shortcuts on my desktop.

The "I always use these apps" menu. (Swipe action is the app drawer)

My web bookmarks, in a hierarchy. (Swipe action just launches the browser.)

Apps that use the camera (barcodes, camcorder, picture gallery, etc.) (Tap action is the Camera.)

Set CM7 long-press search action to a FO menu. In-app access to any app I want, without have to drop back to Home.

Set CM7 lockscreen "custom app" as another FO menu. A couple of direct call links, the camera app, voice memo, check my battery temp. Jump right into what I want to, without hitting Home or exiting the active app.

FO menus do not show in the Recent Apps. So when you exit the app you launched, you are right back in the app you had running.

I do use FO's widgets on 1 screen. One for games, and another for my "guitar" apps.

Now, it's your turn (and tell your friends about this thread too). I want to uncover those gems in the Market that I overlook, because they aren't awesome when they are alone.

[General Questions and Answers] DaWeav:
For me, I wanted to not only transfer files remotely, but also 'sync' automatically and found this program: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.pcfilesync. I'm using an SMB profile that automatically sync's my shared directory '\users\mywindowsprofile\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Podcasts' every 3600 seconds (1hr). Works well since when I delete the Podcast in iTunes, that deletion is replicated to my Android's '/sdcard/Music/Podcasts' folder. I really like this set and ignore automation.

Last November I rooted my T-Mobile G2 using this guide:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=833965&highlight=[guide]

I also installed Clockwork Mod.

I did not install any ROM, and I'm currently running otherwise-stock Android 2.2, build 1.22.531.8. I have ROM backups from Nov. 21 and March 21.

I'd like to install the 2.3 update (I've gotten the notification, but it won't execute, obviously), and have spent the last couple of days absorbing the various un-root guides posted here and around the tubes. The best un-root method appears to depend on which method was used to root the phone.

I've downloaded the PCI10 1.19.531.1 image, the stock_root image, and the stock recovery, and looking at the best way to move forward.

Is it necessary to undo all the modifications (S-off, HBoot, Recovery) before the update will self-apply?

If so, which un-root guide would you recommend for my phone?

Also, I'm running alogcat to try to get the download link - if I get that, should I try to update using Clockwork?

Thanks in advance.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
Well currently there is no sure-fire way to root the OTA 2.3 release, so if you do choose to unroot and take the OTA you won't be able to get rooted again.

If you want 2.3 and still want to be rooted, you're best off either waiting for a pre-rooted OTA build that you can just flash to and not have to mess with the actual OTA, or you can use one of the AOSP-based 2.3 ROMs in the dev section.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] johnacraft:
Thanks.

But assuming I am OK with losing root, does anyone have a recommendation for which "back to full stock" guide to use?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OriginalGabriel:
You're okay with losing root only if you're okay with losing any of the features you use that required you to root it. If you rooted in order to overclock, you won't be able to anymore; if you rooted to get rid of the bloatware, you won't be able to anymore.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thomas_wlc:
Now I'm not sure if this applies to all gingerbread otas, but you should always be able to go back again if you need to, since there's now a way to downgade and subsequently achieve root: Downgrade

I agree with martonikaj - I am doing what he suggests - just wait for someone to release a rooted version of this OTA update!
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] martonikaj:
Yep, there's really no reason to get ancy and waste your time unrooting just to get a manufacturer release of 2.3, when you can have completely bone stock AOSP 2.3 right now and still be rooted.

And if you want the pre-rooted OTA version, you'll be able to get that soon too.

[General Questions and Answers] kpsmithuk:
Some Questions and sorry if they have been asked before

1) Do I need to root my phone before flashing the new fw

2) If I need to go back to the 02 branded firmware 2.1 is this possible does anyone have a link to the ROM

3) Once I have flashed to a generic 2.3.3 ROM will seus still work for future updates?
[General Questions and Answers] sweetnsour:
1. you need to root your phone before you can flash anything

2. more specific please. are you talking about going back to your stock rom? if so, there are two ways:

make a nand backup before you flash anything. you can always restore this backup

although its recommended that you make a backup, if you dont feel like one or forget to, you can always flash the kdz file of your stock rom using kdz updater (which can potentially brick your phone if you are not careful)

3. you will no longer receive ota updates from your manufacturer (of course, you will find that xda will always be one step ahead of your manufacturer when it comes to releasing a newer android version)
[General Questions and Answers] kpsmithuk:
Ok so..............

1)Downloaded the latest Flash Tool last night and backed up my apps contacts and settings.

2)Downloaded the latest generic android 2.3.3 firmware for the uk. From the thread on here.

3)In answer to my own question (hadn't spotted the reply) I didn't have to root first, simply flashed firmware however took two attempts as first time didn't choose option to wipe user settings and phone stuck at SE logo.

4) Will be getting nand backup as prep work with backing up took wayyyyyy to long. It would of been usefull as would have given me the kdz of the old firmware - never mind I'll have to find it elsewhere to keep on hand incase phone needs to go back to 02

5) New version is much better it would seem, phone is quicker and seems to respond better on the touch side - maybe just due to fresh install. All apps and settings back phone up and running as before inside 10mins...except home screen customisation - that's gonna take some playing with! I couldn't get ota updates from 02 anyway they didn't use them - no loss.

6)Will the sony software still pick up updates or am I forever locked into flashing?

7)How do I get the app drawer to scroll up and down like before as opposed to sideways?
